Just got a job as a lifeguard in savannah ringtone
Because it goes past the Statue of Liberty, so I could see her without having to pay admission. It was my first huge cathedral experience, and it was beautiful.Īfter I was done with Upper Manhattan, I took the subway all the way down to take the Staten Island Ferry. But it was worth the time and energy spent. It took me forEVER to find it because I wasn't sure of its exact location. (By the way, this was the most beautiful area in The City that I saw while there.) I took the subway a bit south to Cathedral Parkway to see the Cathedral of St. Even though that would also let me into the Met. Which I didn't see because I didn't feel like paying $25. From there, I took the subway all the way to way-Upper Manhattan and walked to the Cloisters, which is a castle/cathedralish looking building housing a medieval art museum and a medieval garden. I sat down at a table and planned out the rest of my day. Train, then walked to the New York Public Library, where I timidly crept through quiet, echoey halls and rooms. Sound fun? The second time was more eventful. I took my first train to Grand Central, walked to Times Square, took my first cab to Central Park, then walked all the way back to Grand Central to take a train back to Greenwich. This job also happens to be in the near proximity of NYC. I get to hang out with kids all day and just Saturday night the youngest fell asleep on my lap while I was watching The Nerdiest Tribute to Time Travel on BBCA. Not the Super Nanny, not Mary Poppins or Nanny McPhee. A job that I occasionally fantasize running away from. To help pay for said loan debts, I have a job. Don't we just love debt? Thankfully, I didn't have to pull loans till my senior year, so I think I'll survive. Aaiish!Īnywhoo, I managed to graduate from college on time with no outstanding credits. Greetings! I haven't posted since February.

And I basically remained glued to the TV till everyone got home and I could go to bed. (For those who don't know, I am, in general, both terrified of tornados and fascinated by them.) Then, I moved my important stuff to the basement and carted Lucy down to the living room to watch the weather channel with me. With strong winds and greenish-grey skies. >_< The Family went to see a movie, so I was alone. And later that afternoon we got a tornado warning. On the way home, though, it was super windy. Hiking trails are amazing when the world is wet. Otherwise he would never have gone.) And I think we had fun! I know I had fun. We had fun in the rain, certainly, jumping on the trampoline and hopping in puddles, but I managed to get him to go hiking in the rain with me, which I assured him would be funner. And since yesterday was Saturday, I had the six year old all day (the middle children were at football/cheer leading practice and the oldest slept in). Yesterday began with rain, which carried on to the late evening. I trick-or-treated for the first time this past Sunday (because Halloween was moved because Sandy.) I was the most awesome vampire ever. It snowed a lot and then melted within a few days. I'll be back again! Just not as soon as I would like.Īfter I returned to Greenwich (and walked home from the airport in the dark because) we had another storm. I got to see my former roommate's senior speech recital and spend time with some good friends. I kept my visit to South Carolina a mostly-secret, mainly because I love surprises and because I wanted to avoid disappointment due to lack of excitement.
That was also a short visit (too short!) but good. I even had a long enough layover in Philadelphia to see Josh, one of my good friends from school.
I was so afraid the power outages would do something horrible to the airports, but I was able to fly out just fine with no delays. But we were safe, and that's what's important.Īfter Sandy, I surprised my friends with a visit to Bob Jones. I got to drive in the aftermath, with all kinds of power lines and trees and debris out on the roads. I think the girls managed to agree on what colors to do. Right now we have a tarp covered a largeish-but-not-too-too notch on that part of the house and we've got guys painting their room. One tree (the one in the background of the picture further down, in fact,) came apart and a large size chunk of it fell on the girls' room and scraped the garage/clubhouse. We did, however, have to go through trees falling down everywhere. Thankfully, we don't live too close to the coast, so we didn't have to worry about the surges and flooding. And if you know your United States geography well enough, you would know that CT happens to be on the East Coast (New England, to be exact,) and directly in the path of Hurricane/Big Bad Storm Sandy. As you may remember, I live in Connecticut.
